    Special Edition: 200th Anniversary of the Greek War of Independence 1821-2021 18 1821-2021 A publication of the Dean C. and Zoë S. Pappas Interdisciplinary March 2021 VOLUME 1 ISSUE NO. 3 Center for Hellenic Studies and the Friends of Hellenic Studies From the Director Dear Friends, On March 25, 1821, in the city of Kalamata in the southern Peloponnesos, the chieftains from the region of Mani convened the Messinian Senate of Kalamata to issue a revolutionary proclamation for “Liberty.” The commander Petrobey Mavromichalis then wrote the following appeal to the Americans: “Citizens of the United States of America!…Having formed the resolution to live or die for freedom, we are drawn toward you by a just sympathy; since it is in your land that Liberty has fixed her abode, and by you that she is prized as by our fathers.” He added, “It is for you, citizens of America, to crown this glory, in aiding us to purge Greece from the barbarians, who for four hundred years have polluted the soil.” The Greek revolutionaries understood themselves as part of a universal struggle for freedom. It is this universal struggle for freedom that the Pappas Center for Hellenic Studies and Stockton University raises up and celebrates on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the beginning of the Greek Revolution in 1821. The Pappas Center IN THIS ISSUE for Hellenic Studies and the Friends of Hellenic Studies have prepared this Special Edition of the Hellenic Voice for you to enjoy.

  • Maria Christina Chatziioannou
    War, Crisis and sovereign Loans: The greek War of independenCe and BriTish eConomiC expansion in The 1820s* Maria Christina Chatziioannou abstract: This article focuses on the principal actors who undertook the financial intermediation of the greek loans of 1824 and 1825 and the agents who carried it out, the financial market, the stock market exchange and the joint-stock corporate organization. The main argument is that there was an asymmetric relationship between these principal actors and agents. my research hypothesis works on the convergence of two different crises at the same time: the systemic banking crisis of 1825 in London; and the severe internal crisis for the insurgent greeks. i argue that the causes for these “hapless loans” could be more complex, beyond the known moral critique. The two loans obtained by the greeks during the course of the greek War of independence, specifically in 1824 and 1825, are important because they essentially constitute the first international recognition of the greek state. Two daunting economic challenges marked that same period, on the one hand in greece, civil strife, financial hardship and the inability to sustain and equip the insurgency, and on the other in the City of London, the 1825 bank panic. additionally, the administration of the two loans, while the struggle against ottoman rule was still at a critical stage, opened up a very important chapter in anglo-greek relations at a time when Britain’s expansionist economy was taking off. during this period, British philhellenism and political liberalism would encounter the principles of free trade and the new entrepreneurial strategy developing in Britain in the 1820s.

    AHIF P O L I C Y J O U R N A L Spring 2015 Kapodistrias and the Making of Modern Europe and Modern Greece Patrick Theros n 1998, Theodoros Pangalos, Greece’s Foreign Minister attended an EU Conference of I otherwise little note in Brussels. He was half asleep during the sessions until the then President of the Dutch Parliament rose to speak about the common European heritage. The Dutchman proclaimed that a common cultural history united Europe: beginning with feudalism, followed by the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Counter- reformation, the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. This history differentiated Europeans from non-Europeans, a category which the unctuous Dutchman obviously deemed unworthy of membership. Pangalos suddenly came awake and leaped to his feet to state, in his normal colorful fashion, that the Dutchman had just insulted Greece. Greece had indeed lived through feudalism. It had come to Greece in the form of the Fourth Crusade, the sacking of Constantinople, and the dismembering of the country that virtually depopulated Greece. Pangalos apparently went on to eviscerate the Dutchman. He described the Renaissance as created by Greek scholars who fled the Turkish conquest. As for the Reformation and Counter Reformation; those were internal civil wars of the Papacy. No one seems to have memorialized Pangalos’ comments on the Enlightenment and the French Revolution as his Greek diplomats cringed and mostly tried to quiet him down. Pangalos’ ranting was more or less on point and, in fact, historically quite accurate. But the EU officials present, locked into the notion that Western civilization (quite narrowly defined) provided the gold standard for the world to try to emulate while the history and culture of others rated only academic interest made fun of Pangalos to the other Greeks present.

In a generic sense, homogenisation comprised a series of interconnected processes aiming at reconfiguring political and civil authority along national lines in the name of the Eastern Orthodox Church of Christ and the genos. Unsurprisingly, in the early days of the 1820s War of Inde‐ pendence, the exclusion of the religious «other» from the polity and society that the warring factions of the rebels envisaged went hand‐ in‐hand with the victimisation and discrimination of the indigenous Muslim and Jewish element and an innate suspicion and mistrust of the adherents of the Western Church.

  • Griechischer Unabhängigkeitskrieg (1821–1832) Von Ioannis Zelepos
    Griechischer Unabhängigkeitskrieg (1821–1832) von Ioannis Zelepos Der Artikel behandelt Vorgeschichte, Verlauf und Ausgang des griechischen Unabhängigkeitskrieges von 1821, wobei die internationale Dimension dieses Konflikts besonders berücksichtigt wird. Ging schon die Entstehung der griechischen Nationalbewegung maßgeblich auf west­ und mitteleuropäische Diasporagemeinden zurück, die unter dem Eindruck der Französischen Revolution von 1789 standen, wurde auch die Erhebung selbst schnell zu einem internationalen Medienereignis von gesamteuropäischer Reichweite. Die europäischen Großmächte waren es schließlich, die den heillos zerstrittenen und militärisch eigentlich schon gescheiterten Aufstand durch massive Intervention retteten und 1830/32 die Souveränität beschlossen. Die Entstehung Griechenlands als europäischem Projekt zwischen Großmachtpolitik und Philhellenismus prägte die weitere Entwicklung des Landes maßgeblich. INHALTSVERZEICHNIS 1.
